Tottenham Hotspur v Arsenal: squad sheets

Tottenham have not finished above Arsenal since the 1994-95 season and this game should go a long way to determining whether they can break that pattern. André Villas-Boas's side currently have a four-point advantage over their rivals, they are also unbeaten in 11 games, and have Gareth Bale in the kind of form that made February's player-of-the-month award a formality. Arsenal, however, have won the last two north London derbies 5-2 and have a habit of catching, then overhauling, Tottenham at this stage of the season. Daniel Taylor
